In early July 2023, Vester suffered a crack in the outer bone of his foot, also known as a fatigue fracture, and missed the entire season.[6] Despite the injury, Viborg confirmed on 29 September 2023, that Vester had extended his contract until June 2027.[7]

Vester got off to a flying start in the 2024-25 season, scoring 4 goals in the first 5 league games of the season, against big clubs such as Brøndby IF and F.C. Copenhagen.[8]
